Following is just observation , looking for more info ? i read on the HAMB that a starter from a mid 90’s Dakota truck fits all later mopars , probably post 62 requiring only cutting the copper cable stud which hits the block on some engines , And may fit earlier I think all these variants listed involve slight changes in clocking , block casting interference etc but that the nose of the starter and gear mesh is possibly the same . Makes sense in a way in that starter mounting is to torqueflight not engine . So it meshes with converter gear . There were various designs and electrical power , and getting the weak one happens . 57 dodge stick fits 392 cannot crank it hot Been there . .And there are two “ strengths” of 392 “fit 0k” with solenoid on top that are slightly different length ? Long one stronger ? Dodge has solenoid on firewall The consensus of the group on HAMB was that the dakota starter had no problems with 600” B blocks etc but fit A blocks too and was physically small , avoiding header issues for them . And it was cheap on rock auto . I bought one but have not finished car to that point , to try it ( 440 ) ,727 “ let’s see” type thing . But Dakota is A block , so fits those too , goes to 54 up hemi etc The one posted about here is no doubt terrific and I would go that way as a sure thing . But this other path is of interest too . Does anyone know about this ? There was a discussion of slightly different flywheel tooth count by one individual , maybe in context of stick flywheel who said “ It’s wrong according to tooth count , but works fine (!!!!!) . fyi … ymmv On Jun 26, 2024, at 11:30 PM, Nick Taylor <nicksgaragesd@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: -- For archives go to http://www.forwardlook.net/300-archive/search.htm#querylang --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Chrysler 300 Club International" group.
